Renowned historian and naval officer Alfred Mahan analyzes in depth the significant events of the Age of Navigation from 1660 to 1783. He uses the most successful naval strategies of the past as a theoretical framework, from ancient Greece and Rome to Napoleonic France. Mahan pays close attention to the tactically significant qualities of each type of vessel (galley, brander, destroyer), the points of concentration of the ships, and their battle order. Shortcomings in defense and the art of fleet management are also listed. The book cites the rarest documents and maps. This classic work had a strong influence on the minds of statesmen of many world powers.
